Hi there. I took my Hornet on its second trip last
weekend. The first trip I went through two quarts of
transmission fluid in about 100 miles. I since have
had the tranny front seal replaced and the technician
discovered the torque converter was cracked. After
finding a new one and having it installed I went to a
Maine AMC club meeting about 75 miles away. The name
of the club is AMCMainiacs. My car went good except
some pinging passing slower cars up passing zones. (
any suggestions??) I advanced the timing and seemed to
fix it but I haven't gone on any long distance trips.
My Sportabout averaged around 20 mpg with the 258 one
barrel and torqueflite. Like Brad I lost track at how
many people turned their heads to see my firecraker
red wagon. Plus afew just saw taillights when I left
them at some red lights :0 ;)
